American University Washington bested [[Nalsar Hyderbad]] in the finals of the [[NLSIU International Arbitration Moot Court]], while [[Symbiosis, Pune]] and [[Jindal Global Law School]] finished semifinalists in this Tier 4 MPL moot.
Prateek Mishra from [[NLIU Bhopal]] won the best speaker award and Nalsar Hyderabad took home the best memorandum citation. Correction: NLU Jodhpur won the best memorandum citation. We were sent wrong information initially and we regret the error. We have updated the rankings.
Suswagata Roy from [[NLSIU Bangalore]] confirmed the results and said that 31 teams participated in the moot. American University Washington was the only foreign team to participate in the moot. Roy said that the top 4 teams after the preliminary rounds directly qualified to the quarters while the next 4 teams took part in the pre-quarters round.

Roy said that the moot does not exactly follow either the ‘two wins’ format or the ‘cumulative scoring’ format. “We have a rounds point system during the preliminary rounds. There are a total of nine round points in each round. Three of the nine points are for memorandum scores.
“Out of the remaining six, three points each are awarded by each of the two judges on the prelims bench. In each round, if the margin of victory is above seven per cent, the winning team gets all the three round points that can be awarded by a judge. If the margin of victory is below seven per cent, the winning team gets two round points and the losing side gets one round point.”
Roy stated that the rounds point system was conceptualised to eliminate the discrepancies that arise due to disparate scoring by judges.
NLSIU Bangalore did not participate in the All India Moot Conveners Conference held at [[NLIU Bhopal]] last month, where the mandate was to arrive at a near perfect mooting format in India. The 18 law schools which participated in the conference passed 32 resolutions and formulated the Guidelines for Uniform Moot Practices in India (GUMP).
Note: We are still awaiting the full results of the Vis Vienna moot of all teams. The [[MPL 3 Standings]] will be updated after we receive the final list of honourable mentions won by Indian teams during the moot.

not everything is about points.If the team has performed well and qualifies again in the selection rounds, they must go...
There is a mistake. Best memorandum award was won by NLU Jodhpur not by Nalsar.
but, why was christ's moot on competition law with 14 teams in tier 4..?
did it deserve to be on MPl, in the first place...?
Second, moots of amity, lucknow and BVP, pune had 30 points, adn yet, they do not figure on MPL
i suggest LI include these two moots and award points to the winners retroactively..
moots of amity, lucknow and BVP, pune had over 30 teams.
why not add them to list of the moots..?
So LI, it's time u updated the results..
We could not find the 2012 results of the moot on the ILSA website. Could you send us the link please?
Cheers,
Prashanth
And seriously, you couldn't find the link? Aren't you guys supposedly the 'mooting-journalists'?
Here are the Indian citations:
NLU Delhi - 38th Best Oralist
NLS Bangalore - 88th Best Oralist
NLS Bangalore - 3rd best memo
NLU Delhi - 11th best memo
We will update shortly following the scoring criteria laid out last year

Thanks for your comments.
Since we have not received the official results of Jessup or Vienna, the tables have not been updated.
The news from Jessup is that Indian teams did not break into the top 32. However, once the official results are announced, we can award honorable mentions to the top speakers / memos.
Regarding Vis Vienna, the official results have still not been announced on the Vis website. However, when we tried to confirm the results through the participating teams, there was some confusion regarding the claim that MS Ramaiah Law School, Bangalore won a honorable mention. Once we get a full and complete list of the hon mention awardees, we will update the table!
Cheers,
Prashanth
You are only given points for qualifying to the Octas and upwards.. Not for just breaking into the second round.
Yes @Remember, we will aim to follow the same format as last year and not count every single honourable mention.
Second, @12, we have not yet 'reported', as you say, the Jessup results but only mentioned the perhaps less well-known citations that we still had to confirm. In the full story we will allocate points where they are due according to last year's rules.
Thanks for your patience.
Best regards
Kian
